Portillo's Landscape & Fence

Fence installation is the clearest through-line: customers describe new fences, chain-link repairs, and tree removal, while the business also takes on broader yard cleanups and landscape work. Portillo's Landscape & Fence is presented as family-owned on Thumbtack, with 250 hires and 16 years in business; HomeAdvisor and Angi show the related Portillo's Fence & Construction Corporation in Everett with 14 years of experience and Spanish service. Recent homeowners mostly describe dependable execution. A July 2025 customer praised a fence installation, chain-link repair, and two small tree removals, while a June 2025 review raised a specific complaint about changed requirements, mismatched materials, and a month-long arrival delay. Other 2024–2025 reviews praise thorough mulching, quick jobs, communication, and detailed fence work. Older accounts add substantial landscaping examples: a 2024 homeowner described clearing an overgrown yard, removing two maple trees, and laying pine straw, while another described a sloped backyard transformed into a shade garden and patio. Before booking, pin down the exact materials, scope, and start date in writing; the June 2025 complaint specifically concerned material substitutions and delay. BuildZoom lists Massachusetts Home Improvement Contractor license #211097 as active when checked in February 2026 and gives a BZ Score of 90, but that is a directory listing rather than state verification. This looks best suited to homeowners seeking fencing with adjacent landscaping or yard cleanup. Confirm which Portillo entity will contract, the material specification, schedule, and current license status before work begins.
